Cabinteely FC lead tributes after death of young football star Samuel Roquette

Cabinteely FC have led the tributes after the death of one of their young football stars.

Samuel Roquette was a much-loved member of the Dublin club's U12s side and many people have been paying their respects online.

The club said on Twitter this afternoon: "It is with deepest regret and sadness that all of us at @Cabinteely_FC offer our sincere and heartfelt condolences to the Roquette Family on the passing of their darling Samuel. He was a member of our DDSL U-12 Saturday C1 team.

"Our thoughts and sympathies are with Benjamin, Louise, Abigail and Antoine during this very tragic time.

"As a mark of respect to Samuel and his loving family, there was a minute's silence held at this morning's games at Kilbogget Park. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a hanam."
